One thing that always weirds me out is people commenting on fics like they are literary critics? "This plot-point doesnt avance the overall storyline and is derivative" "the character's actions disregard the overarching themes". Like imagine being able to write —gratis, may I add! Nobody is paying for fanfic!! —, anything in the world but still choosing to be bound by editorial standards and nag random people in the internet about it. Some people out here be acting like they run CinemaSins, —for FANFIC, could you imagine— really couldn't be me.
the mcu needs to die the mcu needs to die the mcu needs to die not just for art or because i hate it or because their movies are algorithmically generated or bc they don’t hire union crews but because it has completely saturated the market and because of the lack of taste it engenders in people im sick of it. im sick of it. stop talking about movie #425 like its changed the game its monopolized the game you’re all chumps
taking a drivers test in 45 minutes very nervy
Casablanca (1942) dir. Michael Curtiz
I am terrified all the time
I am filled with fear in the face of beautiful things
The most beautiful thing I ever saw has made me the most afraid
And the fear has never left me
— Niina Pollari, from “Megalophobia,” Path of Totality

when the just some guy version of waymond wang said, “you tell me that it’s a cruel world, and we’re all just running around in circles. I know that. I’ve been on this earth just as many days as you. when I choose to see the good side of things, I’m not being naive. it is strategic and necessary. it’s how I’ve learned to survive through everything. I know you see yourself as a fighter. well, I see myself as one too. this is how I fight.”
There's something to be said about how DE goes about using Harry's amnesia as a plot device. On its own it's the thing that allows us to discover the world alongside Harry, however the story provides us enough tidbits and insinuations, so that is plain to see how much of a trainwreck HDB was. So, unlike many stories, in which the main objective is to uncover our character's past, Harry’s fear of his deeds and inner scars steers our curiosity outwards, towards the world.
